Player Props Research Tips
Player Props Research picks are powered by the ShotQuality Edge. The Edge shows how confident the model is its prediction. Here's how it works.
💰 First we convert the odds into a percentage. -110 means that BetMGM has a 52.4% chance of winning -110 / (-110 / 100).
🏀 Next the ShotQuality model predicts what the player will score using variables like usage, efficiency, past performance against SQ projections, playing time, injuries, etc... The model outputs a percentage that the predicted outcome will happen. For example tonight SQ has 60.7% confidence that Klay Thompson will go under 23.5 points.
💥 Finally we calculate our edge. The edge is the difference between SQ's Confidence and BetMGM's chance of winning. In this example 60.7% - 52.4% = 8.36% Edge.
Simple math. The higher the edge, the greater the advantage over the odds.
